Description

Vehicle cargo loading system {CARGO LOADING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE}

The present invention relates to a cargo loading system for a vehicle, and more specifically, to a cargo loading system for a vehicle that is provided in the cargo compartment of a vehicle and has a structure that improves space utilization and facilitates loading and unloading of cargo.

In general, vehicles are used as a means of transporting people and goods. Vehicles are equipped with seats that can be seated within the passenger seat to safely transport people, and goods are transported in a cargo compartment such as a trunk that is separate from the passenger seat.

Today, the development of Purpose-Based Vehicles (PBV), a simple means of transportation that focuses on the purpose of use of the vehicle to satisfy people's diverse personalities and preferences, is being actively developed. These purpose-based vehicles are designed to vary the spatial configuration of passenger seats and cargo compartments depending on the user's operating situation.

Among such purpose-based vehicles, in the case of vehicles for the purpose of transporting cargo, the cargo compartment excluding the passenger seat for driving the vehicle can be configured by modularizing it. Cargo compartments must have different configurations depending on the size of the cargo being loaded and the purpose of delivery. For example, the cargo compartment where large cargo is loaded must have a large loading space, and when small cargo such as a delivery vehicle is loaded and the delivery address of each cargo is different, the cargo can be sorted and sequentially ordered according to the delivery order. It is necessary to partition the space so that cargo can be retrieved.

Accordingly, there is an increasing need to develop a cargo loading system that can improve delivery efficiency and increase the convenience of use for delivery workers by modularizing and configuring an appropriate cargo loading system according to various cargo transportation situations.

As shown in Figure 5, cargo 3 can be stored in a plurality of cargo boxes 300 and loaded into the loading space of the carrier 100.

The cargo box 300 can be loaded into the loading space of the carrier 100 at the first stop position through the through hole 35 at the rear of the vehicle 1. As described above, the first stop position may be the lowest position where the carrier 100 can be located.

A loading device 5 as shown in FIG. 5 may be used to load the cargo box 300 into the cargo loading system. The loading device 5 may be equipped with a plurality of cargo boxes 300b to be loaded into the cargo loading system. The loading device 5 can load the cargo box 300a into the carrier 100 at the first stop position through the through hole 35 using the loading guide 7. After loading the cargo box 300a on the carrier 100 at the first stop position, the control unit 210 drives the transfer device to pivot and transfer the carrier 100 on which the cargo box 300 is loaded, and the cargo box 300 ) can be made to stop the unloaded carrier 100 at the first stop position. Another cargo box 300b prepared in the loading device 5 may be loaded into the carrier 100 on which the cargo box 300 stopped at the first stop position is not loaded by being inserted through the loading guide 7. Thereafter, the control unit 210 may repeatedly rotate and transport the carrier 100 so that the cargo box 300 can be loaded.

Referring to Figure 6, a cargo box 300 according to an embodiment of the disclosed invention includes a box frame 310 forming a storage space in which cargo 3 is stored therein; and a slide panel 320 that forms a floor surface on which the cargo 3 is loaded and is provided to slide to the side of the box frame 310. Such a slide panel 320 can help the cargo box 300 be easily pulled out when it is loaded on the carrier 100 and pulled out through the pullout gate 50 as described above from the second stop position. .

Figure 7 is a rear view showing cargo being pulled out of a cargo loading system according to an embodiment of the disclosed invention, and Figure 8 is a side view showing cargo being pulled out of a cargo loading system according to an embodiment of the disclosed invention. .

Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8 , the withdrawal gate 50 includes a first gate member 52 that is hinged and opened downward so that the slide panel 320 slides to the outside of the side wall 40; and a second gate member 51 that opens above the first gate member 52 to form a space 55 through which cargo loaded on the slide panel is extracted.

Referring to FIG. 7, the withdrawal gate 50 is opened and closed by the upper second gate member 51 and the lower first gate member 52. The first gate member 52 on the lower side is hinged and opened downward so that the slide panel 320 of the above-described cargo box 300 can slide and withdraw the loaded cargo 3 through the withdrawal gate 50. do. The second gate member 51 opens upward to form a space through which the cargo 3 can be extracted.

Such a withdrawal gate 50 may be provided at a predetermined height so that the worker can easily transport the retrieved cargo 3 without bending his or her waist.

The control unit 210 can drive and control the transfer device 200 to stop the carrier 100 loaded with the cargo box 300 at the second stop position so that the cargo 3 can be removed.

The control unit 210 according to an embodiment of the disclosed invention may include a memory (not shown) in which delivery address information of the cargo 3 loaded on the plurality of carriers 100 is respectively stored.

At this time, the control unit 210 may determine the stopping position of the carrier 100 based on the delivery address information of the cargo 3 and control the operation of the transfer device 200.

The delivery address information of the cargo 3 is stored in the memory when the cargo 3 is loaded, so that the control unit 210 can drive the transfer device 200 to easily retrieve the cargo 3 according to the delivery address information. there is.

More specifically, the control unit 210 acquires the operation destination information of the vehicle 1, determines the carrier 100 loaded with the cargo 3 to be withdrawn based on the destination information and delivery address information, and determines the carrier 100 loaded with the cargo 3 to be withdrawn ( 3) The transfer device 200 can be driven and controlled to transfer the loaded carrier 100 to the second stop position.

For example, if the delivery address information of the cargo 3 loaded on the carrier 100 is A and the current destination of the vehicle 1 matches A, the transport device stops the carrier 100 at the second stop position. (200) is driven and controlled.

When the vehicle 1 arrives at A, the operator can deliver the cargo 3 by opening the delivery gate 50 and withdrawing the cargo 3 from the carrier 100 stopped at the second stop position. In this way, the control unit 210 drives the transfer device 200 according to the delivery address information of the cargo 3, thereby preventing delivery errors and increasing delivery efficiency.
